Sportsbook Poker customer to get lucky in Kentucky

By Erin Warner

The winner of Sportsbook Poker's latest promotional tournament will be off to the races in May. The site is currently promoting its Road to the Derby events, running daily for only $10.

The champion of the final tournament will win an all-expenses-paid trip for two to the Kentucky Derby.

The $10 daily events are already underway and run until April 14, with the final table slated to go ahead April 15. The winner of each Road to the Derby tournament receives a seat at the Run for the Roses final.

Sportsbook Poker customers also have a chance to get to the final by playing in an April 8 freeroll tournament to win a seat at the main event.

The Run for the Roses tournament is only open to those who've qualified through the daily events or through a $100 direct buy-in April 15.

The winner and a friend will be flying to the 133rd Kentucky Derby on the poker room's bill and will also receive free hotel accommodation for three nights, two tickets to the race and $500 in V-chips as part of the prize package.
